Imagine how club owners would react if they were completely boycotted for 2 weekends. They'd be forced to cut the crap. When 2010 comes around, its going to be worse than ever - there will definitely be a bunch of confused tourists wondering how to get in. |
I like going to Honey, it's in Tinseltown...
Hot chicks, decent music, good drinks, low douchebag count
$10 cover I think though?

much rather hit up a pub or drink at a buddy's place

It's hard to put a finger on why such a shitty clubbing culture has developed in Vancouver. I've clubbed in tons of other countries/cities and by far it is a 100x better. It just seems like the first reaction of people here when you bump into them is they want to fight, but other places, people actually apologize. It's such a subtle difference but it makes all the difference.

I royally despise most clubs. I enjoy being inside, but everything that goes on outside of them is ridiculious. I find it personally degrading to wait in line while other people are simply allowed to bypass everyone being it because they are girls or because their freinds with someone who works their. I just hate waiting in fucking line ups when its not even completely full inside.

All the complaints in here can be witness before your eyes in every club in Van...these owners dont need us telling them how to properly run a club. Sad but true...3rd countries have much better clubbin scene than Vancouver. Quote:

Plan ahead. Go there before it gets busy (just before 10) then getter stamped and go to a pub/bar to drink where its cheaper.
For Dj shows. Pre drink at ur house/friends house or u can do the same as the above ^^.

Haven't been to clubs in ages until recently due to my gf's friend b-day party and even though we were on the VIP list we had to wait for an freaking hour before we got in and btw this was Fabric. What's the with all the hype surrounding this place anyways? Isn't this crap hole used to be Sonar ? Also I agree Vancouver's clubs suck ass compared to everywhere else.

Do what the french do, firebomb the clubs. flip cars. create a riot.
i bet you could get a riot going if you went to costco and grabbed a whole bunch of bread and bribed the hobos to have a riot in the city.  Z guaranteed

It's really unfare to compare vancouvers nightlife to Ibiza considering ibiza is "the place" for afterhours parties.
Toronto, Montreal actually have fairly good afterhours parties. Montreal for the massives. They just had balenblanc the other day. www.balenblanc.com
During new years, they throw a massive in the bell centre (where the montreal canadians play)
10-15k people ain't bad. I went the last two years.

The best clubbing experience I had in my life was in Korea. They have so many clubs within walking distance, different music, just over all fun. Everyone is friendly and no one is there to cause trouble. I enjoyed it more than clubbing in Beijing, Guangzhou, and HK.
Vancouver clubbing sucks.
